LGBTQ groups sue Arizona asking a federal judge to strike down a state law prohibiting HIV and AIDS instruction that 'promotes a homosexual lifestyle.'

The Associated Press

It says it enshrines in state law that LGBTQ students can only be discussed in a negative light and communicates to students and teachers"that there is something so undesirable, shameful, or controversial about 'homosexuality' that any positive portrayals of LGBTQ people or same-sex relationships must be explicitly barred."

"Arizona is stigmatizing and demeaning LGBTQ students and preventing them from getting medically-accurate information that literally could save their lives," said Puneet Cheema, a staff attorney with Lambda Legal, a legal advocacy group for LGBTQ rights.
